Funding

Pretty big news for Team CodePen! We're in the process of finalizing our first ever funding round. We're going to do a few podcasts directly on this subject, and it's likely all our future podcasts will be influenced by it in some sense.

Here's some answers to some of the obvious questions:

How much?

$1,000,000

Who was it from?

Friends and family. Chris Campbell kicked off the whole idea. Chris' brother Ryan Campbell (they were 2/3 of the original founders of Wufoo) and our own Tim's brother Chris Sabat are also joining the round.

What is it for?

Primarily hiring. We have big ideas!
